Mysterious Madam Ling
Posted On Jul 3 2016After I named my studio, Suzanne felt she wanted to get in on a good thing. (See post.) Since I named by studio the Chuckling Ferret Studio, Suzanne played with words, swirled them around and Chuckling became a guy – Chuck Ling, hence Chuck Ling Ferret Studio. And since she is married to my nom de studio self, she felt that necessarily she became Mrs. Ling. Further word play led to Madam Ling, then to The Mysterious Madam Ling. Now, it needed a favorite critter, marmot won the prize. Finally, she has The Mysterious Madam Ling’s Marmot Studio. Play is …
The Pleasure of Making an Altar
Posted On Dec 12 2014The Pleasure of Making an Altar Building an altar can be simple, easy, and playful. And in this case, communal. And sometimes, rule breaking. “Dad, a jade plant is not a Christmas tree,” she said. “I beg to differ. Jade’s sprit works for me.” The stuffed mouse was added by Suzanne. The photo has been moved by several people. What you can’t tell is that it is an image of an opened mouth, whistling marmot. One of my totemic creatures. He was at the birth of Christ. It’s documented. This altar clearly has roots in my Christian heritage. Make ones …

It’s a toy that might have some delightful uses that I can use to justify my purchase. By the way, I still don’t own a cell phone. The ASUS Transformer I settled on comes in Gray or gray. But that can be fixed with a laptop skin, a protective material that adheres to its surface making it pretty. My daughter Sasha introduced me to skins at Nuvango.com. They ask artists to create images for …

Sacred Oatmeal???
Posted On May 13 2011In the first of our four Living with Magicality conversations Krysta Gibson talks about a surprisingly, cool transformational tool – eating oatmeal. (http://goo.gl/uLpMI) “How’s that?” you ask? It is cool, and I use it too. It reminds me of the silly joke – Buddha goes up to the hot dog vendor and says, “Make me one with everything.” Ho HoHo. As you are eating your oatmeal or your food of choice, consider … Where did it come from? How many people were involved to bring you your breakfast? Maybe a spouse. Certainly, farmers. And truckers. And the guys that built …
